The Dancer

The rhythm, Of the air Compliments the lyrics The heart bear Throwing his feets On the earth as trick Coiling his toes As if they're foes. On and On He goes on Till day became dusk And brightness by darkness tucked Then he picked his way home: The beat is not his own! 18:04:07:14:11 Poet's Note: Do not take time dancing to another man's beat, get your own and spend all time on/with it.
